Global streamflow and flood response to stratospheric aerosol geoengineering [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018 Flood risk is projected to increase under future warming climates due to an enhanced hydrological cycle. Solar geoengineering is known to reduce precipitation and slow down the hydrological cycle and may therefore be expected to offset increased flood

Greenland Ice Sheet Response to Stratospheric Aerosol Injection Geoengineering [PDF]
Earth's Future, 2019 The Greenland ice sheet is expected lose at least 90% of its current volume if ice sheet summer temperatures warm by around 1.8 °C above pre‐industrial. Geoengineering by stratospheric sulfate aerosol injection might slow Greenland ice sheet melting and ...

Mission-driven research for stratospheric aerosol geoengineering. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2019 The last decade has seen broad exploratory research into stratospheric aerosol (SA) geoengineering, motivated by concern that reducing greenhouse gas emissions may be insufficient to avoid significant impacts from climate change. Based on this research, it is plausible that a limited deployment of SA geoengineering, provided it is used in addition to ...

Halving warming with stratospheric aerosol geoengineering moderates policy-relevant climate hazards [PDF]
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering is a proposal to artificially thicken the layer of reflective aerosols in the stratosphere and it is hoped that this may offer a means of reducing average climate changes.

Impacts of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering strategy on Caribbean coral reefs [PDF]
International Journal of Climate Change Strategies and Management, 2017 Purpose Currently, negotiation on global carbon emissions reduction is very difficult owing to lack of international willingness. In response, geoengineering (climate engineering) strategies are proposed to artificially cool the planet. Meanwhile, as the harbor around one-third of all described marine species, coral reefs are the most sensitive ...

Environmental Research Letters, 2016 The reduction in global-mean precipitation when stratospheric aerosol geoengineering is used to counterbalance global warming from increasing carbon dioxide (CO _2 ) concentrations has been mainly attributed to the temperature-independent effect of CO _2

CESM1(WACCM) Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering Large Ensemble Project [PDF]
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2018 AbstractThis paper describes the Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering Large Ensemble (GLENS) project, which promotes the use of a unique model dataset, performed with the Community Earth System Model, with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model as its atmospheric component [CESM1(WACCM)], to investigate global and regional impacts of ...

Climate Response to Pulse Versus Sustained Stratospheric Aerosol Forcing
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 Solar geoengineering has been suggested as a potential means to counteract anthropogenic warming. Major volcanic eruptions have been used as natural analogues to large‐scale deployments of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering, yet difference in climate ...

An interactive stratospheric aerosol model intercomparison of solar geoengineering by stratospheric injection of SO2 or accumulation-mode sulfuric acid aerosols [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 Studies of stratospheric solar geoengineering have tended to focus on modification of the sulfuric acid aerosol layer, and almost all climate model experiments that mechanistically increase the sulfuric acid aerosol burden assume injection of SO2.
